Iced cucumber soup from A Lifetime of Cooking, Teaching and Writing from The French Kitchen (page 40) by Diane Holuigue

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute zucchini for cucumbers.

    A different take on an iced cucumber soup (for me). Usually I make them without cooking the cucumbers, but this recipe simmers cucumbers and sauteed onions in milk before blending. It is chilling in the fridge as we head into another day of exceptional temperatures. UPDATE: The soup is creamy and tastes of cucumber and a gorgeous buttery flavour. Very good, and I'd love to try the zucchini variation.
